State of the Action | |||||
He may be the only man from his team in attendance, but he will looking to make an impact. John Lewis is the only man in the field under 1:50 this year. Well under 1:50 at that, setting a PA State Record of 1:48.72. He's also known for his 400m Hurdle prowess, as well as the open event, but nowhere is he more clear the favorite than here. But there is a reason Myles Marshall was asked to pace the exclusive Dream Mile through 800m. The man has 1:48.43 speed, and has represented Team USA. Along with his parental pedigree, he could come into the field and drop something huge. Cannot overlook or forget about indoor national champ Brian Bell (Dunbar OH), he ran down Lewis in the SMR at indoor nationals. Despite being only US #19 ranked with his 1:51.04 season best, Bell has a real shot at being both an outdoor and indoor national champ. The fastest non-senior in the field is Minnesota state champ Lucas Trapp, who ran US #13 1:50.80 two weekends ago. Cruising around that 1:50 range is Drake Gauthier of Michigan and Elijah Inuwa of North Carolina. Both are on the low end of 1:50, and in a kickers race, could steal the win. Speaking of which, Sam Ritz is the only man to beat John Lewis over 800m this year, and it could happen again with a National title on the line. Look out for that PA rematch in the field. | |||||
